Default Younger C4 or DTS

Well guys my cousin backed down I guess he found out the 0-60 times for the DTS were 7.3 while my LT1 is 5.0 0-60. Anyway doesnt a guy driving a 96' red vette look a lot hipper and richer than a guy in a black 2003 DTS with chrome wheels??? He think the girls will like his Caddy better. The guy is 33 years old. I still think the girls will like the vette better. Any thoughts???

Its a real discussion. I always think that the Caddy adds ten years when you get out of it and the Corvette makes one look 5 years younger.... My thought...

Hehe no not stupid, this is "general discussion" what did you expect?

Anyway, vette for sure. DTS is for old folk and drug dealers. Think of it this way. An 89 vette is still considered a c4, and has a folowing, poeple mod them, take care of them, etc. An '89 caddy is considered an old caddy. There are certain neighborhoods in LA that have a lot of them, with 100 spoke gold rims and fuzzy dice.

eh, I wouldn't say everything, but it certainly has a lot to do with it.
personally, a sedan would just bore me beyond belief. If I was going for comfort and utility, I'd just get EuroVan or something - in addition to my toy.

Looks dont matter. Its all in the ride. I want sports car performance and feel. Caddy doesnt have that. Sure, the caddy has a back seat, but so what, dont need one.

Besides, girls shouldnt judge us on our rides, they should judge us on how good we are in bed

I like the vette better obviously but I don't think either car will help with the ladies unless you meet one while driving down the street and then what ?? Yell hey baby out the drivers window ?? The car is only a bonus when you actually take her out up until that point it won't help if it helps at all.

Oh of course. Trying to use a car as a mating aid? You're either really ugly, stpuid, or some combination there-of. Of course the girls you get by using a car will be the best girls in the world, too...

Some of the hottest chicks Ive ever picked up (including my current one) were in my beater when on campus..

Well I explained the question to Lisa and her response is......
The guy in the Vette would be the first pick, even though she likes Caddy's. Now as for what Vettewieser said: Yes we are always being judged. So the car will get you laid, but your performance will get you repeat visits.

Look richer in a 96 corvette ?? What's a 96 corvette worth 16-24k ??
You look almost as rich as the guy next to you in the windstar minivan.
Yeah get the corvette satin jacket maybe a hat, a corvette ring and a corvette bracelet anything but a performance part for the car. The car is a dating aid ? In highschool.

Mr Vader. If your thinking of your vette as a dating aid or a way to "get chicks" you could have saved that monthly payment and just joined one of the many internet dating services. those women dont care what you drive, they just want your CC #. as far as wether or not your vette will beat your cousins car , maybe instead of asking us you should head out to the local dragstrip.if nothing else yall will give everyone there a good laugh seeing you race a cady. Im sure my lt4 will beat a lot of cars out there..but you know what? i dont care I bought mine becouse i grew up wanting a vette.. not just to get laid with or race someone,but becouse they have a stigma about them. Ive seen broke down country boys get out of pickups with knock out women on their arms while in the same parking lot there will be a lonely vette guy..its all in the attitude. from your posts i get the feeling I know which guy you might be most like...just my opinion
